Reactive Oxygen Species Mediate the Suppression of Arterial Smooth Muscle T-type Ca2+ Channels by Angiotensin II

Abstract Vascular T-type Ca2+ channels (CaV3.1 and CaV3.2) play a key role in arterial tone development. This study investigated whether this conductance is a regulatory target of angiotensin II (Ang II), a vasoactive peptide that circulates and which is locally produced within the arterial wall. Pa...
